A typical example f a mrning persn is thught t be smene wh wakes up naturally at 6 am, exercises, has breakfast and is ready fr a prductive day at wrk by 9 am. Whereas an evening persn hates t get up early in the mrning and feels mre prductive in the evening. What’s behind the different chrntypes (睡眠类型) ?
Researchers have analyzed (分析) the relatinship between chrntypes and persnality traits. A large number f participants were asked t answer questinnaires abut their sleep timings and persnality. Opinins n the participants’ persnality frm thse wh knew them well were als cllected. In this way, researchers were able t see the relatinships between sleep and persnality.
Researchers fund that peple high in cnscientiusness (认真尽责) and lw in penness were cnnected with having earlier chrntypes. They went t bed and gt ut f bed earlier. They als fund that less straightfrward and excitement-searching, yet mre self-disciplined (自律的) peple were mre likely t have earlier chrntypes, t.
These findings have helped researchers cme up with tw pssible pathways f hw persnality might influence chrntype. First, persnality traits may influence peple’s preferences fr different scial activities, which in turn, may influence what time peple g t bed. Fr example, peple wh like searching fr excitement might g t cncerts and bars mre ften, which may keep them up later at night. The secnd pssible way is thrugh active decisins peple make regarding their sleep. Mre self-disciplined peple make decisins t sleep earlier as a healthy lifestyle chice. Other research has shwn peple high in self-discipline avid behavirs that are harmful t their health.
“Althugh persnality traits g thrugh little change ver time,” Prfessr Anu Real, ne f the researchers, says, “ur findings suggest it might be pssible t change yur chrntype r at least train yurself int a different, mre scially cnvenient sleep pattern by increasing yur self-cntrl.” Evening peple wh typically experience wrse health culd learn t g t bed earlier, r regularly turn ff the lights at earlier hurs, which might lead t falling asleep earlier and better health.
27. Which f the fllwing peple is mst likely t have an earlier chrntype?
A. Peter wh ften makes mistakes in his wrk and fails t reprt n time.B. Tm wh enjys ging t different cncerts and parties t make friends.
C. Jane wh ges running fr an hur every day and hardly ever eats junk fd.D. Mary wh is ppular at schl and prefers t tell thers her thughts directly.
28. What is Paragraph 4 mainly abut?
A. The purpse f the research.B. The backgrund f the research.
C. The prgress in the research methd.D. The analysis f the research findings.
29. Why des the writer mentin Prfessr Anu Real’s wrds in Paragraph 5?
A. T explain hw different persnality traits influence peple’s sleep timings.B. T discuss why a mrning persn is mre ppular than an evening persn.
C. T stress regularly turning ff the lights at earlier hurs is very imprtant.D. T shw sleeping patterns culd be changed by increasing self-discipline.
30. Which f the fllwing wuld be the best title fr the passage?
A. Persnality Traits: Cnnectins t Yur Sleep TimingB. Are Persnality Traits Becming Yur Wrst Enemy?
C. Persnality Traits: Pssible Slutins t Yur PrblemsD. Are Persnality Traits Changing Yur Ways f Thinking?
D
A Dairy Queen manager std up fr a blind man. The blind man drpped a $20 bill, and a wman picked it up and pcketed it. Seeing that, the manager threw her ut f the restaurant and then handed the man $20 frm his wn pcket. His gd act made headlines n the Internet. It may nt be ttally new, but public attentin des seem t be attracted these days by rdinary (普通的) peple, wh make extrardinary mral (道德的) decisins.
Mimi Drumwright, a prfessr frm University f Texas, says, “This is the type f stries that will encurage gdness. The reprts f the gd acts prbably will beget mre gd acts, and that is a gd thing. Already, cuntless strangers have been paying it frward with $20 t the Dairy Queen manager.”
Sme experts, hwever, questin if airing this kind f “gd” news is actually gd. They say there may be a dwnside t verplaying it.
“They did d the right thing. But heric? I think nt. They had the duty t d what they did. It was nt abve and beynd the call f duty,” says prfessr Peter Madsen frm Carnegie Melln.
When peple celebrate what shuld be rdinary behavir as extrardinary, experts say, it sends a dangerus message. “I d wrry abut a culture in which peple are giving selves credit fr nt having dne terrible things. It sets a really lw standard fr what it takes t be a gd persn,” says prfessr Daniel Effrn frm Lndn Business Schl. He thinks praising peple fr what he calls “the immral rad nt taken” culd actually have the ppsite effect. When d-gders are t highly praised, it means that they’re far greater than the rest f us. It even suggests that mst peple in that situatin wuld be indifferent t what happens, unwilling t get int truble r ffer t give a hand. Mre disappintingly, they wn’t feel bad when behaving like this. S, it suggests that mst peple are selfish and self-serving, and therefre, it’s OK if they’re selfish and self-serving.
Others, hwever, argue that the reasn why these stries are seen as unusual is nt that we devalue (贬低) urselves. They suggest we devalue these particular d-gders.
We have t be careful nt t g verbard. But celebrating peple fr ding the right thing is still the right thing t d.
31. The underlined wrd “beget” in Paragraph 2 prbably means “________”.
A. put ffB. wrk utC. lead tD. cut dwn
32. “A dangerus message” mentined by experts in Paragraph 5 might suggest ________.
A. peple will feel upset when they d anything immralB. peple will think it nrmal nt t ffer help t thse in need
C. peple wn’t be punished even if having dne terrible thingsD. peple wn’t be afraid f getting int truble when giving a hand
33. The writer prbably agrees that ________.
A. the reprts f gd acts can have little influence n thersB. devaluing urselves is why we see rdinary stries as unusual
C. rdinary gd acts make headlines because f peple’s selfish natureD. praising peple fr ding the right thing prperly shuld be encuraged
四、阅读短文,根据短文内容回答问题。(共10分,第34至36小题每题2分,第37小题4分)
Tday, the bully(欺凌;欺凌者) fight have mved t a new field—cyberspace. Using emails, instant messages, websites, and cell phnes, cyberbullies harm r threaten thers n purpse. With their identities(身份) hidden behind cmputer screens, cyberbullies can be harder t catch.
Bullying by the Numbers
Criminal-justice prfessrs Justin Patchin and Sameer Hinduja surveyed 1,500 kids aged 10 t 17. They reprted that abut ne-third f the kids claimed t have been cyberbullied. Sue Limber and Rbin Kwalski, researchers and teachers at Clemsn University in Suth Carlina, recently finished a study f 3,767 students in grades six thrugh eight. They fund the mst ppular methd f cyberbullying is instant messaging. Unkind messages in chat rms, emails, and n websites were clse behind. Limber and Kwalski als fund that girls were twice as likely as bys t be the target(目标) f attacks.
That’s enugh!
Several states either have laws r are wrking n laws that require schl districts t stp cyberbullying and punish students wh are invlved.
Finding ut the identity f the bully and getting kids t reprt a prblem cause additinal prblems. “It is difficult fr smene wh is being cyberbullied t knw wh is ding it because identities can ften be hidden r wrng” Limber says. If yu are a victim(受害者), she advises, ask an adult fr help.
Ways t avid bullies
Here are the tp three skills kids need t develp in rder t avid schl bullies. First, appear cnfident. Bullies lk fr kids that shw fear and lw self-esteem. Hw victims reply, hw they hld their head, whether they stand tall, even the tne f their vice can signal that a kid might make an easy target. Secnd, develp friendships. Bullies lk fr kids wh lack cnnectins r wh are alne and target them. Even ne gd friend at schl can greatly help yu ut. Third, Be away frm bullying places. Make sure yu knw that there are sme areas at schl where bullying is mre likely t happen.
